We’re invested in Australia’s resource sector

We believe in Australia’s resource sector and its people. We invest in the businesses that make it happen, this includes the mining companies that employ so many Australians and contribute to our country’s ongoing prosperity. We also offer services and solutions that take into account the lifestyle and circumstances of employees working in mining and resources.

Member benefits


Super that’s made to benefit you

Resource Super members enjoy benefits that take into account the realities of working in the mining and resource sector.

GoalTracker®


Investing For You

Resource Super’s MySuper investment option is GoalTracker®. This is also the default investment option for members who don’t make an investment choice.

This option creates a diversified investment strategy across a range of asset classes and sectors (including the resource sector), based on your age.

When you’re younger, your investment strategy will have a higher allocation to growth assets to help grow your super balance. As you approach retirement, it will increase your allocation to defensive assets to help protect your savings.

Resource Super FAQs


Discover the answers to some of the most common questions people ask us. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, you can contact us directly via our contact form or at info@resourcesuper.com.au

Why do I need a super provider that’s dedicated to the resource sector?
The resource sector operates differently from many other industries, with employment practices such as fly in/fly out working, labour-hire and contracting more prevalent. It also often carries a level of risk that’s different from many other sectors.
 
We understand how the resource sector works and strive to make sure our offers meet the needs of the industry’s employers and employees.
 
This includes offering the potential for high levels of insurance, travelling onsite to remote locations to offer financial literacy and super workshops, and giving employees the opportunity to access the award-winning of GoalTracker® program.
How do I switch super funds to join you?

Click ‘Join Resource Super’ at the top of the page. We’ll ask you to complete a short application, which includes the details of your existing super fund(s).

Before you combine your super, you should find out about any entitlements or insurance cover that might stop when you close your other account/s.

Can I switch to Resource Super if my employer uses a different super fund?

If you already have an account with Resource Super and you want your new employer to start paying the employer super contributions into this account, it’s super easy.

When your employer provides you with an  ATO Standard Choice Form, you can complete it by adding our fund details and your account details.

Continuing with Resource Super may also mean you don’t have to go through any underwriting to get insurance cover (which may be a requirement when joining a new super fund).

When I switch to Resource Super can I keep the insurance in my existing fund?

You may be eligible for automatic insurance that is aligned to the industry you work in when you join Resource Super through an employer. You can also apply for insurance cover if you switch to us as an individual.

We also understand you may wish to keep your current level of insurance through another super fund when you switch. We can assist with an insurance transfer to your Resource Super account.

You can also maintain your insurance in your existing account. However, if you stop making contributions to your super fund or reduce your balance does not meet the required premium, your insurance cover may cease. So, if you want to keep your current insurance cover in place when switching to us, make sure you contact your current super provider so you comply with their minimum requirements for ongoing coverage.

Insurance fees, that are not paid by your employer, may erode your retirement benefit. You should consider whether you hold similar insurance cover elsewhere, either within another fund or outside super, and the impact of holding multiple insurance covers (such as duplicate insurance fees, over protection, or Income Protection policies offsetting so only one of the policies will payout).
